Dillard and Miller heading to the PUP List

After sitting out practice, both WR Jarrett Dillard (stress fracture in left foot) and TE Zach Miller (plantar fisciitis* in left foot) are both heading to the PUP list this afternoon.

Is that a new injury for Miller or the old one that isn't done healing?

What does that mean?

Are they restricted to a certain date to when they return, or they can come off the list tomorrow?

IIRC players can move freely on/off PUP until first cuts

Pretty sure they can move off PUP any time during TC/Preseason.

If they’re on the PUP when the season starts, the must miss at least the first 6 weeks and be activated before week 9 or move to IR.

I think you’re right. I do know they still count against 80 man roster, though.

Yes. They count against the 80 man roster

and if they participate in practice, they’re off the PUP for good.

I’m sure there’s a fine-line between practice and rehab though. :-)

I thought I read something like that on this site or Vic the other day. So hopefully this is precautionary for the next 3 weeks or so until cuts, but still would be nice that they are 100% heathly now.

I think Dillard is fine but I am a little concerned about Miller. I am only basing this on my own fear but I just don’t like how long it seems to be lingering. I hope I am wrong. He has so much potential.
